    Thanks!

    Love the UCA kit. Well built kit and performs great offroad. I was actually thinking about going LT in the rear to keep up with the front, but the one problem is I don't have the funds. If you have the money, I'd say go for it. You can't go wrong with TC's LT kit. NakedTacoma is running the exact same setup you want.

    Been around, but have been busy. Let me know when you come down to SoCal.

    Thanks!

    stupidhurt-so you think lt would be a waste of money, if you are using it has a once a month dessert runner? i also drive a subie, so i use my truck for work, homedepot, going biking, brining the dog out, go to the beach to sponge and camping. the tc uca kit would handle some offroading? do you run without your sway bar off? no res or with res when ordering my coilovers? how fast have you driven off road with your suspension? do you run with stock gears? do you know if you can fender roll , to get that wider look. or do they sell fiberglass kit that are less wider? sorry for all the questions. i just dont wont to buy anything i wont regret. peace, chingy

    I don't necessarily think it's a waste of money. It's a lot of money to be spending at one time though. The TC UCA kit in the front works great offroading. Paired with the TC LT rear kit, it would be very nice. I'd say ask NakedTacoma for a better opinion since he has the same setup with TC UCA kit in the front and TC LT kit in the rear. When running the TC UCA kit, you have to take off the sway bar since it gets in the way of the coilovers. I have the SAWs with no reservoirs, but if you plan on doing long desert runs, the resis will help. The only reason mine don't have resis is because I bought them used that way. I don't go too fast when I offroad. If you watch the video below at around the 2:00 mark, you'll get a good idea of the fastest I've really driven while offroading. You can get the All Pro fenders which are only 3" higher and 2 1/2" wider. Hope this helps. :thumbsup:

    stupidhurt- if you had a choice to spend your money on tc long travel suspension. would it be in the front or rear for a 5 lug 2006 reg. tacoma? can you also tell me what your set-up would be if you went LT in the front and if you went LT in the rear. thanks

    I'll get a pic next to my friend's truck for you soon.

    Haha, thanks!

    In my case since I'm already mid travel up front, I'd upgrade my rear suspension. The TC mid travel is a great setup as is, but my current rear setup can't keep up. I'd love to do both front and rear, but no $$$. Would be nice though.

    Maybe. :spy:

    Honestly can't remember. I don't have it anymore either. Bumper was repainted and they left that center area unpainted.

    That's a good question. I think Matt (shemicals) said he wanted to get the Icon extended travel coilovers, but can't remember.
